The trailer for Ghoul, starring Radhika Apte, dropped less than 24 hours ago. So if you were already missing the intensity of Sacred Games -- another Netflix India original featuring Apte -- you're in for a terrifyingly good time. From the folks who brought you Insidious, Get Out and Udta Punjab, Ghoul's plot revolves around mysterious events that occur inside a maximum security military interrogation centre -- events that cannot be explained by modern science. It appears that the story has elements of Arabic folklore, which includes tales of ghouls -- creatures that haunt graveyards and feed on human flesh.

The Ghoul trailer shows us glimpses of what is to come, when the miniseries releases on August 24, 2018.

Nida Rahim, a passionate, patriotic army officer whose performance stands out from her peers', turns in her father when she finds him guilty of sedition. Though it may appear that she has overcome what is probably the toughest thing you'd think she has to go through, her superior officer assigns her one last task. Nida is asked to extract a confession from a dangerous criminal -- a task she intends to complete. But when, in an isolated interrogation centre, under acute surveillance, the prisoner turns the table on his interrogators, Nida and her colleagues find themselves caught in their own prison with a deadly entity hunting them.

Directed by Simran Sethi, Ghoul started off as a joint effort produced by Phantom, Blumhouse Productions (founded by Jason Blum) and Ivanhoe Pictures but in February this year, it was acquired by Netflix. It is the first Indian horror project that will feature on the streaming platform.

2018 seems to be a stellar year for Radhika Apte -- something we already knew when we sat down for a chat with her in December last year. Not only did she appear in Sacred Games, Lust Stories and Pad Man this year, she will also be seen in Sriram Raghavan's Andhadhund on August 31.
